The AF BEST J seats are roughly equivalent to the DL A330/747 seats, in general more spacious and private than the KL seats. (The KL seats are roughly equivalent to DL 75S seats.) But you need to make sure your cabin is 1-2-1, since not all planes have been converted (and even if yours is at booking, last minute swaps sometimes happen.)

This is only allowed for long-haul J pax on flights that don't offer F.

Depending on exact flight dates, the last flight (~11:30pm) looks to be operated with a BEST 772 without P. All other AF flights ex-JFK (1 BEST 77W, 2 NEV3/4 A380) offer P.
